[78-L] test - to see if my g-mail really is...^

[Marvin Kaplansky]

I'm surprised that no one has pointed this out yet:

- in Yahoo hover over the "gear box" at the upper right of the screen

- click on "Mail options" in the drop-down menu

- this opens the Settings window. Click on "Viewing emails" on left side

- in the first entry unclick "Enable conversations". Click Save on the
lower left of the window. This will restore all emails in a thread to
separate messages. Gmail has had conversations since day one but at least
Yahoo gives you the option of disabling it.

In no way does this excuse Yahoo's approach to its clients (we are paying
for its use through the ads most ignore). There is no justification for
them making unannounced changes and then not fully documenting them in a
Release Notes type of  publication as other software vendors have been
doing for decades.
